<p>Mazda has just unlocked a first for the brand.</p>
<p>The “zoom-zoom” mark is now on top <em>Consumer Reports’ </em>annual list of most trusted car brands. This is the first time this has happened.</p>
<p>The report, officially titled “Consumer Reports 2021 Brand Report Card”, was released on Thursday and the other four brands in the top five were BMW, Subaru, Porsche and Honda.</p>
<p>Alfa Romeo’s reputation for reliability will not be helped by its last place on the list of 32 brands. Just ahead of Alfa were Land Rover, Mitsubishi, Jeep and Lincoln.</p>
<p>Unlike most motoring journalists / motoring publications, <em>Consumer Reports</em> actually buy the vehicles it tests, and do so anonymously. It also examines its subscribers.</p>
<p>Last year’s best dogs were Porsche and Genesis, but Genesis dropped 13 spots this year. Lincoln had it even worse and fell 15 places to 28th.</p>
<p>Tesla, the darling of tech brothers everywhere, slipped from the 11th to the 16th. This still puts it ahead of Mini, Kia and Volkswagen.</p>
